Answer:  The answer is 80%.


Step-by-step explanation:  Let us define the following events.

B = the event that the shirt is blue,

G = the event that the shirt is green

and

S = the event that the shirt is striped.

So, n(B) = 8,  n(G) = 7,  n(B and S) = 5, n(G and S) = 4.

n(S) = 5 + 4 = 9.

We have

n(B\cup S)=n(B)+n(S)-n(B\cap S)=8+9-5=12.

Therefore, the required probability is

p=\dfrac{n(B\cup S)}{8+7}=\dfrac{12}{15}=\dfrac{4}{5}=0.8=80\%.

Thus, the answer is 80%.

Please help me write quadratic equation given the roots and the leading coefficient
Pie

Answer:

Example Question: f(x) = 2x^2 + 2x - 1


If the leading coefficient is positive, the graph will be opening up (U) if the leading coefficient is negative, the graph will be opening down (n)


Roots are the x-intercepts that help find the axis of symmetry (add the two roots together and divide the result by 2 to get the axis of symmetry)


To find the vertex, simply imput the axis of symmetry into the given equation.


And that’s about it.

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Well, the only thing you should do is to use the formula.

if the bases are: a, b

and the height is=h

Then, this is your formula, S=½(a+b)×h

Step-by-step explanation:

Aight,

100dm=10m

S=10m

now, the formula

10=½(2.1+1.9)×h===> 20=4h==> h=5m

PLEASEE HEEELP! In the normal distribution, 68% of the data lies within 1 standard deviation A: __/6 of the mean, 95% of the dat
Lena [83]

Answer:

a) 2.5% b) 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

1300 is two standard deviations higher than the mean. Since 95% of the data is covered within two standard deviations to the left and right of the mean, 5% is not covered. So, we have 2.5% leftover on the left side of the curve, under 900, and 2.5% leftover on the right side of the graph that is above 1300.

The mean is 1100, so anything above or below the mean is exactly 50% in a normal distribution.
